The Good American co-founder, 37, graced the famous Metropolitan Museum of Art staircase on the first Monday of May for her debut Met Gala appearance — joiningthe rest of her family for fashion’s biggest night.
Channeling the evening’s dress code – Gilded Glamour – Kardashian showed off her style in a glimmering gold bead fringe Moschino gown that hugged her curves. She accessorized the look with black opera length gloves, matching shawl and slicked hair.

She also opened up about her first time at the Met Gala. “It’s so scary but it’s fabulous and I’m so excited to be here,” Kardashian said, adding that being with her family makes it all the more special. “I’m so excited that we’re all here together. I just had to be a part of this experience. It’s something I have always wanted to do. I need a glass of champagne.”
The 2022 Met Gala theme is “In America: An Anthology of Fashion,” with the dress code being gilded glamour and white tie. Channeling the time period between 1870 to 1890, the event “will ask its attendees to embody the grandeur—and perhaps the dichotomy—of Gilded Age New York,” perVogue.
